Best GPS? - Tarpon4me - 01-18-2006
I'm in the market for a new GPS, and i'm not up to speed on the new electronics that are out. There are a few options that i'd really like it to have:
1. Color screen
2. Marine charts for the East coast
3. Computer linkable
4. Reasonable price is a must
5. Hard mountable
6. Extremely shock and water proof (I drive pretty hard)
I might be able to bend a little on a couple of those demands in order to get a quality GPS that will do the job for around 200-275 dollars. I also was wonder if it was possible to manually input your own waypoints into all GPS's. That may sound like a silly question, but there were alot of GPS's I saw at Basspro that didn't have number pads on them, and I couldn't help but think how the hell you logged your destination in the thing. Anyways, any help will do me right, thanks yall.

Can't help you with most of the questions but can solve the number problem. When you put in a waypoint the location(mark), the coordinates where you are come up. You use the up and down arrow keys to change each number.
